Home away from home
The place was just as it was advertised. Eight roomy bedrooms with all amenities. The owner Rena greeted us with a big smile and personally gave our group a tour of the house. We enjoyed staying at this home very much.

One key was a bit of a challenge for a group of people. Lights at entry room weren’t working.

Perfect Getaway
Perfect property for a large group. We had nine and had more than enough room. Both floors have a full kitchen. Property manager was wonderful & even made sure the kids had Easter treats. The location to everything you need and want to do is perfect to the home's location. Proceeds from your stay also help to benefit children in the Philippines. A must stay when you are in Juneau.

The property owners are very lovely and accommodating. They were more than helpful when we had a trash removal issue and they quickly jumped in to assist. These hosts went above and beyond our expectations! Thank you for making our family gathering a beautiful success....

After taking all precautionary measures our family of 19 gathered safely from the lower 48 and locally for a most wonderful time. The accommodations made all the difference in being able to share life long memories and our hosts made the arrangements flawless. We arrived to a decorated house that made it our home away from home.

Excellent for large group or family
This property was excellent for our family. Everyone had their own section of house with two bedrooms and a bath. Did not even need the second kitchen. Owners are amazing people!

Great space!
We had 7 families (13 adults & 7 kids) staying at this house for a week and never felt like we were living on top of each other. Additionally, we hosted a dinner for 2 high school basketball teams with upwards of 40 people in the house at the same time and still didn’t feel crowded. The kitchen is well stocked with dishes and we had everything we needed to cook meals during our stay. Rena was very attentive and checked in with us throughout the week. My only suggestion is for the owners to intall a keyless entry. With our group size and different schedules, it was difficult to coordinate who should hold the house key. We will definitely stay here again if the need for Juneau travel with a large group is necessary.

Great for large groups.
This house was perfect for our group of school kids here for a basketball tournament. The owner was very accommodating and we had plenty of space for all of us.
